Only had time to get a couple of blocks done this weekend. Spent most of the weekend shopping as working on a show like Project Runway will make you paranoid about your outfit!!

It was so much fun to work with these bright and vibrant colors.

On a different note – my job takes me to Seattle later this week and then I head to NYC. I know I want to hit up Purl Soho, but anyone have any other recommendations of fabric or other fun stores that I can’t miss out on while I’m in either city??

I live in Seattle and I don’t think any of the fabric stores here are worth trekking to. We definitely don’t have anything that is up to the level of Purl Soho!

The blocks look great! I’d recommend The Quilting Loft in Seattle, Quiltworks Northwest in Bellevue, and if you make out to Bothell, Keepsake Cottage in Country Village (Country Village is fun all together, and worth the trip out).

My favorites are above.
Though, Reprodepot is outside of Seattle. If you have time, it’s worth the drive.

Hey Alissa, I’m in Seattle right now too, I haven’t been to many quilt shops downtown, but here is a link to a good one. Its big and they carry alot, they have lots of stores. I think they’re discount warehouse is downtown. There is also a little quilt shop in Pikes Place Market. I’m not sure what its called but its on the left of the fish market (where they throw the fish and its either on that level or the one under it. Anyone would know if you asked. Have a great trip!

I agree… City Quilter and M&J trimming. If you get hungry, I totally recommend Once Upon a Tart which is next door or two to Purl (the yarn store). You will NOT be disappointed.

You just pull together the mosy unlikely of fabrics and it seems to work … every time.
Love the bees!!

Definitely hit up City Quilter-I was disappointed in Purl Patchwork when I headed over, plus it was a big trek. Mood is awesome, and Paron Fabrics is great too. Check out Paula Nadelstern’s website-for a fabric tour of NYC.
